It's been a while in the making, with a good many prototypes, but finally here it is: The Solarbotics Turbot Kit This alien-like robot is unlike any other robot you've seen!
Friday New Product: BusBoard ProtoBoards
Solar botics
July 19, 2013
We've been working hard to bring you a conundrum* of new protoboards and other handy items to go with them (*conundrum - a collective noun used to describe massive amounts of protoboards inhabiting our shelves). This issue of Friday new products features roughly half of the whole selection we offer, which can cover pretty much any projects you decide to do. Can cover, you guessed it, with boards:
|
SB830 Solderable PC BreadBoard (single-panel compatible) $6.50 BusBoard makes lots of great prototyping PCBs. Here's a convenient one that matches a regular 1-panel PC breadboard, with handy top-print overlay, and thinner interconnections for friendly track cutting. |
 |
SB1660 Solderable PC BreadBoard, Double-sized $12.00 BusBoard makes lots of great prototyping PCBs. Here's a convenient one that matches a double-wide PC breadboard. |
 |
BR1 Solderable PC BreadBoard (single-panel compatible) $6.50 BusBoard makes lots of great prototyping PCBs. Here's a convenient one that matches a regular 1-panel PC breadboard. |
 |
BB-2 Zig-zag solder prototyping board, 80x100mm $5.66 Zig-zag patterns on this single-sided prototyping board makes it particularly convenient to solder your circuit down into something permanent. |
 |
PadBoard-3U Protoboard, Pad-per-Hole, 160x100mm $5.66 For the ultimate in protoboard flexibility, here's a one-pad-per-hole, plated-through, double-sided board from BPS. |
 |
PowerBoard-3U, 6-hole strip Solder protoboard $10.78 This traditional soldering protoboard is very similar to a solderless breadboard, but has a monster set of power distribution rails running through it. It also accommodates a 96-pin VME backplane connector for slotting connectivity. |
 |
ProtoBoard2H-2, 2-hole Strips, 100x80mm solder Protoboard $5.66 Long strips of copper too much for you? Complex zig-zags drive you nuts? Here's a nice compromise - solder prototyping with pairs of connected pads. |
 |
ST2 StripBoard solder protoboard $5.66 It doesn't get more standard than a large, traditional stripboard for soldering your experiments! |
 |
SMTpads-Size3U-Thin 50x50mil Pads Protoboard for SMT $12.99 SMD parts are becoming easier to find than old "finger-friendly" ones. Have some of these SMT pad-compatible breakout boards for your next tiny project. |
 |
SMTpads-Size3U, 200x100mil Pads Protoboard for SMT $12.99 SMD parts are becoming easier to find than old "finger-friendly" ones. Have some of these SMT pad-compatible breakout boards for your next tiny project. |
 |
ProtoBox-1593K-BK Protoboard and Case Kit $7.23 Got the circuit breadboarded, tested, and ready for field-testing. Ummm... sure would be nice to build that onto a nice protoboard and case shell wouldn't it? |
 |
PCB Mounting Adhesive Standoffs 8-Pack $2.75 If you need to tuck a circuit board someplace and you can't fit a screw, use these handy low-profile, self-adhesive PCB standoffs |
Well, if you were trying to make a telescopic toothpick-shooting badger model, our protoboards might not prove helpful, but even then! Give it a try, you never know...

New Product and Day Off
It's a short week this week, so new product is coming early. We are closed Friday April 18th, which is hence called Good Friday. LilyPad Arduino SimpleSnap with LiPoly cell $29.95 This is the LilyPad Arduino SimpleSnap Board. It's controlled by an ATmega328 with the Arduino bootloader. It has fewer pins than the LilyPad Arduino […]
Pololu is neat.
They make neat things. Like wheels that fit the 3mm "D" shafts on GM11a/12a/13a/15a/18 gear motors. And super-cool motor mounts. This stuff is so neat, that we're selling it now. 32x7mm Fine wheels 42x19mm Fat wheels Standard Mini Metal Motor Mount Extended Mini Motor Motor Mount Oh, did I mention that the MAKER Faire: Austin […]
New Kit: Type-1 Solarengine Re-issue
It's been a while since we've had this kit online, but due to some diligence we've found materials to update and re-issue it! Using the licensed "MillerEngine" (which we find to be a substantial improvement over the old Solarengine), we've changed the kit with a new black circuit board and updated documentation. Check it out […]
